“…Mafic-ultramafic rock assemblages in different ophiolite massifs and mélanges along the YZSZ have been studied extensively during the past 30 years (i.e., Miller et al, 2003;Liu et al, 2010;Bezard et al, 2011;Dai et al, 2011;Guilmette et al, 2012;Hébert et al, 2012;Guo et al, 2015;Li et al, 2015;Niu et al, 2015;Lian et al, 2016Lian et al, , 2017Feng et al, 2017). Geodynamic models explaining the geochemical evolution of the YZSZ ophiolites, their tectonic origin of magmatic construction within a broad Neotethys oceanic realm, and the paleography of this Mesozoic-Cenozoic ocean basin vary significantly Dai et al, 2013;C.
